of snake and askos. Eye in transitional type. In the original sketch the 1. leg was drawn

Satyr as Heracles in the Garden of Hesperides. On the r. is a tree with
four upright leafy branches, on three of which three oinochoa: hang; around it
a large snake is coiled, which darts its tongue angrily at the club which the
Satyr brandishes against it ; he strides forward to the attack, in a mock-heroic
attitude, extending his 1. covered with a wine-skin, suspended round his neck, as
a shield ; he has a short bushy beard and rough hair radiating from the crown.
